These sports have some of the longest programs in College sport with preparation beginning back in late October and continuing throughout the Christmas holidays and early January. A special mention to the many students, staff and families all involved in making our programs such a success for Marist College Ashgrove. We have always mentioned how success can be measured in many different ways from the number of premierships, wins throughout the season, aggregate championships through to the significant number of students who participate in sport. This term had the highest number of teams participating in sport ever at our College with 93 teams involved in Ashgrove sport. We pride ourselves on providing every student with an opportunity to be involved in organised sport, and the task of managing this is no greater anywhere than at our College. The work of our sport coordinators, coaches and ground staff in collaboration with the sports department to run a program of this magnitude is impressive. We appreciate how understanding our community is in recognising the time and effort that goes into running our program and we certainly appreciate the positive feedback we have received throughout the term. One of the highlights of this term was the introduction of AFL for our senior sporting teams which provided yet another opportunity for our students to engage in a different sporting code. As always the involvement of our Year 7 and 8 students in our colours volleyball competition along with an influx of senior teams into the internal competition was another highlight. The AIC Volleyball competition saw the development of our program continue and the hard work put in place by Mr Adam Knight and Mr Scott Minogue translated to our best result in 10 years. We comfortably placed 2nd and significantly closed the gap on aggregate winners Iona College. With some great junior results, the future looks strong!

From the Head of Sport Continued... In a season that had a few rounds affected by wet weather, our Cricket program continues to maintain its strength but saw an unfortunate slip to 2nd in the aggregate title for only the 3rd time in 21 years. While it is tough to stay on top forever, it is also a timely reminder of our need to avoid complacency and signals the need to return to hard work in order to improve our results. Our sporting programs are only as good as the staff who run them and a sincere thank you must go to the coordinators of AFL (Mr Brett Gillett), Cricket (Mr Stuart Martin and Mr Phil Tonkin), Swimming (Mrs Cath Geraghty) and Volleyball (Mr Adam Knight and Mr Scott Minogue) for their great organisation and support of our sporting programs. Each of these staff members has demonstrated great passion and enthusiasm for their roles and we are fortunate to have such dedicated staff at our College. TERM 2 SPORT With the conclusion of the Cricket and Volleyball season, focus has now turned to Rugby and Football trials for Term 2. This newsletter contains all of tomorrow s trial information posted in previous newsletters parents and boys are to check this information thoroughly.

SPC 1.4(10) 3 Oliver Peregrina 2 Jack Webster 1 Finn Cusack AROUND THE GROUNDS 6A: Defensive work rate was high across the board and caused a lot of turnovers resulting in scores. An even spread of contributors forward of the ball coupled with many selfless acts meant that goals were shared in what was a nice way to finish off the season. 6B: A dominant final performance to conclude the season for the 6B s, with goalkicking and forward pressure a highlight. As usual, the outstanding pressure of Micah Netzler helped the boys keep the match under control, while the sharpshooting of Darcy Latimer and Hugh Homer was a testament to their hard work all season, with eight goals from the forward duo. What a way to end things off in season 2019. 5A: The boys certainly saved their best for last, battling hard for all four quarters which, not for wayward kicking, would ve been the just rewards for a season s hard work. The improvement from the previous time we played the opposition was there for all to see. The mood in the group post game only goes to show the desire of the group to continue their hard work in future seasons. 5B: The boys came up against a committed St Pat s team and the first half was a tight affair with only a couple of goals being scored. In the hot conditions, the boys dug deep to record a well-earned win to finish off the season. Marist College Ashgrove - The Buzz - Page 6
Secondary School - AIC AFL Round 7 v IONA - March 23, 2019 YEAR 8/9 Last game of AFL 8/9s and up against the undefeated Iona and the chance to win and be equal premiers. A great opportunity for many of these students (over 50%) who had never played AFL previously. Kicking with the breeze the Marist lads made a solid start and new FF Chetham goaled with his first touch and the Eagles were level at quarter time. In the 2nd quarter the bigger bodies & experience of Iona saw them jump ahead by three goals. The Marist boys responded magnificently after half time and led by captain Houlihan and CHF Grounds they threw everything at Iona. Helped by O'Connell, Burg, Creek and Carroll gathering plenty of the footy and with Blomley, McCann, Bond & Nichols down back trying desperately to stop Iona scoring. The small forwards in Harper, McLean & Rosenbrook were also tackling furiously and applying pressure to keep the ball in the forward half. In the end, the Marist disposal and turnovers through the middle cost them dearly and while playing their best game proudly in front of Head of Sport Mr Miles, the 8/9s lost by 4 goals to finish runners up in a wonderful return to high school AFL. YEAR 7 AFL V IONA COLLEGE It was a day of mixed returns for the Year 7 boys as we rounded out our season against Iona College in hot conditions at Runcorn. The boys got off to a great start, winning the territory battle and creating plenty of opportunities up forward. Unfortunately, we were unable to capitalise, and a lapse in concentration in the second quarter allowed Iona to bang on a few quick goals and take a commanding lead into the second half. Our lads fought back bravely and our pressure on the ball began to show results as our forwards started to find the goals. Our backline also started to find their way late in the game, playing aggressive, first-in footy and outworking their opponents to repel the Iona attack. As has been the case for us this season however it was too little, too late and Iona finished the game, comfortable victors. It s been a challenging season for our Year 7 team; with many inexperienced and even first-time AFL players in the squad and a playing list in constant flux due to availability and injury it s been difficult to establish a feeling of consistency throughout the term. To their credit, the boys fronted up to training every week and worked on their skills and game sense and we saw some fantastic progress in that regard. Their commitment on game day has been equally impressive and I don t think you d find a more gutsy and courageous team in the competition. FIRST XVIII The boys showed great spirit in their final game of the year taking it up Iona and outscoring them in the 2nd and 3rd quarters. It showed that the boys have learnt a lot this year and developed a good style of play getting better each week. Big Sauce (Harry McVeigh) had a run through the middle and added some grunt, while Tyler Galligan was best on ground. With the majority of the team in Year 10 & 11 we have laid an excellent foundation for years to come. MCA AFL EAGLES ELITE ROUND 7 B BP - J. Mitchell FB - A. Blomley BP - H. McVeigh HB HBF - J.

Fletcher Cabot secured a run out from the boundary, and there were three brilliant catches from Xavier Howard, Lachlan Braithwaite & Fletcher Cabot. 6B: Against a very strong opposition the boys never gave up in the field to keep the pressure on Iona. The highlight in the field came from Cam McPhee who threw down the stumps from deep square leg to earn the team an important run out. 6C: The boys faced a very well drilled Iona side. Although they bowled very well and were set an achievable target Iona s bowlers and efforts in the field denied them in the end. 6 GOLD: Wash Out No Result 6 WHITE: All the hard work put into fielding drills throughout the season paid off in an exceptional effort in the field; the 6 White boys managed 6 run outs in the match putting the opposition batsmen under immense pressure. 6 GREEN: Wash Out No Result 6 BLUE: Spectacular all round effort after a shaky start with the bat. Mason, Tunny and Ackery all starred with the bat, totaling 13 4 s between them. Continued with the fielding, claiming 4 wickets in 5 overs and maintaining high quality fielding to keep the Paduans at bay. 5A: Jonah Wilde set-up an awesome batting platform with 30*, Jimmy Garden was the key to finishing the game on top with a contribution of 20*. An outstanding batting effort to chase down 140. 5B: Will Bagnall bagged himself two great wickets exhibiting blistering pace and proving to his coach that his 50m run up, is in fact, not too long. He also smashed a six and four off his last two balls to bring up 36 runs, not out, off 22 deliveries. The perfect ending to an undefeated season for Will and the mighty 5Bs! 5C: A close fought win by the boys to secure an undefeated season. Brilliant batting in the first innings from Ben Hawley set up a last over thriller with Finn Manahan stepping up to close it out. 5C GOLD: A great way to end a fantastic season with the boys! SPC proved a tough opposition, but fortunately the boys rallied together and, with some amazing fielding, finished the season on a high. 5 WHITE: Leo Pigott had a great day at the batting crease; scoring 25 runs which included five 4s. Leo s effort brought the team very close to catching Iona s total but the boys fell 4 runs short. 5 GREEN: Terrific performance on the weekend and a great way to end the season. Henry Waters put in a Man of Match performance; Henry, kept wicket, bowled 1 over returning figures of 2/1 and top scored with the bat with 10 runs, an outstanding individual performance.

Volleyball The 2019 Volleyball season for MCA has been majorly successful, with a second place in the Open 1st VI competition and second overall in aggregate results. Our aggregate result breaks a 10-year absence from the Top 3, and our score of 67.5 eclipses our other scores, most recently: 2019 67.5 points (2nd) 2018 52.5 points (5th) 2017 59.5 points (4th) 2016 49 points (5th) 2015 51 points (5th) Every team except one (who came 5th) achieved a top 4 placing this is a monumental achievement. This is due to the hard work of our coaches. Their dedication, care and professionalism was an asset to the boys and the program. It is also due to our depth our C and D teams performed exceptionally well and contributed greatly to this result through the enacting of the culture we want in the program. Well done to all of you! And the best thing about all of this? We have done it with dignity. Success comes through hard work, care for others, and learning and growing virtues we have seen throughout the weeks and throughout the teams. A massive thank you to everyone else involved players, parents, staff and most notably Mr Scott Minogue, whose oversight of the junior and Internal competitions has been exemplary. Also a huge thank you to our Head of Sport, David Miles, for his unwavering support of the program and those who run it. I look forward in earnest in our attempt to do one better in 2020.

However, Iona took it out in an edge-of-your-seat point for point battle that left the final set score at 27-25. Following this, Iona wanted to capitalise on their momentum, and we strove to upset their flow. Similarly to the first set, the two teams displayed an extremely high level of skill as both teams fought valiantly; however the Iona offence was too strong as they again took the second set, 28-26. MCA, on the back foot and with a buzzing crowd at their back, knew that they had to put everything they could into the final set. Starting shakily down 17-8 at one point they slowly worked their way back up, chipping away at Iona s well-formed defence, hit by hit. Regardless of the heart displayed by the MCA boys, Iona was too well established, they took out the final set 25-22. Regardless of the end result, I couldn t have asked for a better group of boys to play with throughout my final year of schoolboy Volleyball and better support staff to help out. I would like to wholeheartedly thank anyone who has helped the Volleyball program, whether it was half an hour in the tuckshop or an extra voice in the crowd, thank you.

Volleyball Years 7-9 The Junior Volleyball teams have had their most successful season to date, and their results helped contribute to the second place aggregate result. Each week this season, I was able to report back that the Year 7-9 teams, from A-D, won the majority of their games across the day quite convincingly. The success that these teams saw was a result of the hard work, effort and commitment that the players possessed, and all of the teams in the Junior competition saw improvement from Round 1. Special mention must go to the 7C, 7D and 9D teams who were undefeated this season. Marist College Ashgrove presented as strong unit on the court, whilst always playing with humility and showing respect towards the opposition, the referees and each other; I am very proud of how these boys presented themselves. It must be noted that the coaches led by example and they set a positive and determined tone in their teams. I would like to thank the coaches for their commitment to the program through their drive, enthusiasm and organisation of training sessions - this was evident to the boys and was definitely a contributing factor to our final result. I am well aware that without parental support, the boys wouldn t have had the opportunity to experiences these successes, or learn many valuable lessons, in this sport. So, a big thank you must go to the parents for driving your son to trainings, your encouragement for their involvement in the sport, and your support on Saturdays. I would also like to thank those parents who spent time in the canteen this season your time here was much appreciated. I would also like to thank David Miles, Adam Knight and Corey Lucas for their organisation this season. I look forward to being involved in continuing to develop the Volleyball program at Marist, and hopefully we can emulate this similar success in the future.
